Introduction

This section gives an overview of the user guide and describes the SMD202 and its

features. Topics that are covered include:

• About this Guide

• About the SMD202

• Features

About this Guide

This guide contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the SMD202.

In this guide:

• Codec or H.264 refers to the H.264/MPEG-4 Part 10 AVC codec.

• Stream can refer to audio, video, or both that is received by the SMD202 and

constantly decoded for display.

About the SMD202

The SMD202 is a compact, high performance H.264 decoder used in applications that

require live AV streaming or file playback from files located on shared network storage

devices. The SMD202 can decode and display one SD or HD stream and output a single

HDMI signal supporting resolutions up to 1920x1200 (60 fps, progressive). The video output

can be scaled and its aspect ratio modified. The SMD 202 is compatible with content from

all Extron H.264 streaming products, including SME and SMP series products.

The SMD202 can be controlled from the front panel, using IR, and from the RS-232 and

Ethernet ports. Ethernet to RS-232 pass-through for display control is possible.

The SMD202 decodes H.264/MPEG-4 AVC streams or clips and outputs HDMI video with

embedded or analog audio for display on any HDMI compatible device (see figure 1 on the

next page).

Figure 1. Typical SMD202 Application

SMD202 • Introduction 2

The optional handheld IR remote control allows channel preset recall and channel

navigation. The SMD202 automatically detects transport and stream formats and decodes

the content for presentation to the display.

A channel list can be defined that allows simple selection of individual streams. The user can

import or export source selection data including URLs and associated data from the channel

list. This is an extension of the configuration save or restore capability that can save box and

IP configuration settings for the product as a separate file.

The channel list can be accessed with a remote control (not included) for selection and

playing streams included in the list.

The SMD202 decodes all common stream resolutions and frame rates.

NOTE: The SMD 202 does not support decoding of encrypted content.

The SMD202 can be configured using a host PC or laptop connected to the front

panel USB Config port, the RJ-45 LAN connector, or the RS-232 port (see Remote

Communication and Control on page129). A compatible Web browser on a control PC

connected to the same network as the SMD202 can access the embedded HTML pages.

A video confidence display allows image monitoring from the user interface while making

configuration and control adjustments.

Video Output

Video output parameters are configured automatically for the connected display based

on the display EDID, or can be configured manually using a browser and the video

configuration page.

NOTES:

• The SMD202 does frame rate conversion between the input stream frame rate and

the output frame rate, scaling from the source resolution and output resolution, and

aspect ratio between ﬁt (zoom), ﬁll, and follow as required.

• Fill and follow background, when necessary, is black.

The SMD202 by default, automatically outputs video corresponding to EDID data from the

connected display within the resolution and rate combinations (see Output Resolution and

EDID Support Table on page4). The output rates available are limited by the display

capabilities. EDID data exchange is compatible with E-EDID V2.0 (EDID data structure 1.4)

and EIA/CEA-861E.

• Highest pixel rate is 1600x1200 @ 60 Hz (162 MHz).

For applications where the EDID settings do not provide or allow the desired results, select

a video output from the table. Select a defined output rate combination supported by the

display, or set the video output to match the input stream.

If required, the output can be muted automatically after a defined period of inactivity to allow

connected displays to enter standby mode. Alternately, it is muted and unmuted under

user control. Video mute settings are cleared during reboot or power cycle events (see

Configuration Page on page49).
